Let the savings begin.

Call 877.287.3416 to schedule your home energy assessment, or visit deohpwes.com for details and eligibility requirements.

Program administered byThe Dominion Energy Ohio Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Program is offered on a first-come, first-served basis and is available until annual funding is expended or the Program is discontinued by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio. The Program is funded by Ohio utility customers and is administered by CLEAResult, on behalf of Dominion Energy Ohio.

Who’s your energy advisor?Energy advisors are Building Performance Institute (BPI)-certified energy experts, who are highly trained to understand home performance, and how factors such as age, size and mechanical equipment all work together.

What rebates are available to make the improvements?Dominion Energy Ohio offers rebates for a variety of improvements such as furnaces, water heaters, attic and wall insulation, air sealing, duct sealing, duct insulation, replacement windows and exterior doors. A list of contractor-installed and do-it-yourself rebates can be found at deohpwes.com.

Do I need to make all the improvements recommended in order to be eligible for the rebates?You can choose to do some or all of the recommendations based on your current budget. You will receive rebates on the eligible improvement(s) you make. Visit deohpwes.com for more information.

What to expectDuring a home energy assessment, a certified energy advisor evaluates your entire home as one interconnected system to understand exactly how it’s using—and wasting—energy. The assessment takes 2–4 hours, and considers your heating and water systems and levels of insulation. The energy advisor will also perform a blower door test to check for air leaks and perform safety tests on your furnace and water heater. Your energy advisor may then install energy-efficient products at no cost.

After the assessmentAfter the assessment, you’ll receive a customized report full of recommended improvements to help you save even more. Recommendations may include air sealing, insulation, upgrading old or inefficient heating, or replacing windows and doors. Available contractor-installed improvements must be completed by a participating contractor. However, there are also improvements you can make yourself. Better yet, we’ll provide financial rebates and connect you with participating contractors for each energy-saving project. Our energy experts are here for you every step of the way.
